Afterward, he lifted his arm and sniffed at it.
A slight furrow formed between his brows, and then Huo Tianzun strode toward the guest room upstairs.
I can’t meet my baby smelling , what if she gets overwhelmed by the scent?
Soon, Huo Tianzun took a quick combat shower in the guest room’s bathroom, then went toward the bedroom wrapped in a bathrobe.
Qianxun was somewhat surprised to see him coming back in from a shower outside.
After getting up from the bed, she naturally walked over to the wardrobe to fetch clothes for him and asked, "Why didn’t you shower in the bedroom?"
Hearing this, Huo Tianzun spoke softly, "The smell of blood on me is too strong; I didn’t want to overwhelm you."
Qianxun chuckled upon hearing this.
In the past, after interrogating prisoners, he would also bathe before he saw her, since fox’s noses are sensitive to the smell of blood.
"I don’t mind it," she said, as she handed him the clothes she was holding.
Huo Tianzun took them, and realizing he wasn’t wearing anything under his bathrobe, his ears reddened, then he headed toward the walk-in closet.
Seeing this, Qianxun laughed and teased, "Yanzhi, do you need any help?"
"No need!" Huo Tianzun quickly responded, then ducked into the walk-in closet.
Qianxun was so amused that she rolled around on the bed.
After changing into his clothes, Huo Tianzun approached Qianxun with his usual expression.
"Did you get any information out of the interrogation?" Qianxun asked at that moment.
"Yes, it was an old Taoist who helped them break the Formation," Huo Tianzun narrowed his eyes, a hint of fierceness in them.
He had thought as much; how could the demons so easily break through the recently reinforced Demon-locking Array?
So there was a Taoist helping behind the scenes.
From the current situation, that old Taoist must know the Demon-locking Array very well, but the Black Bear Spirit had no special connection with him; why would he risk the Snake Demon to destroy the Demon-locking Array just to save a Black Bear Spirit?
Huo Tianzun realized the other party’s intentions when he considered that if he hadn’t been in Yanjing City, perhaps all the demons imprisoned would have already broken out by now.
He most likely intended not just to save the Black Bear Spirit but to take the opportunity to release all the demons!
Who knows what could happen when so many demons come out all at once!
"An old Taoist?" Qianxun also pondered upon hearing this.
Then, with a furrowed brow she said, "Could it be targeting you? To those Taoists practicing Evil Techniques, your Merit Power might be even more tempting than the flesh of Monk Tang."
Hearing this, Huo Tianzun was momentarily stunned.
The next moment, his gaze chilled as he said, "Maybe it really is aimed at me."
After all, ever since he became the Guardian, many demons have been dying to devour him.
But he hadn’t considered that there were humans who wanted to consume him as well...
His baby’s words were a good reminder.
On hearing Huo Tianzun’s words, Qianxun’s expression turned cold. "Then we need to catch this person even more!"
Huo Tianzun, seeing her worried look, immediately said, "Don’t worry too much, I’m not easy to deal with."
But Qianxun couldn’t shake off the gloom in her heart; she couldn’t let Yanzhi come to harm again.
Meanwhile, Huo Tianzun held her in his arms and spoke softly, "You wanted to know why the Demon Management Bureau is built so close to the Forbidden City? Actually, this place is on a Dragon Vein, with dragon energy and a special Formation suppressing it, which can weaken the power of the demons."
Hearing this, Qianxun nodded slightly; she had already guessed this point.
However, what she was more curious about was how Yanzhi had become the Director of the Demon Management Bureau.
